Trying to make a decent living room gaming setup, I'm using a wireless keyboard and mouse which gets interference.

I'm not surprised, with router, tablets, and mobile phones in the place.

So to try and make a tidy wife approving version of wired, I was thinking I use a shelf on my lap for keyboard and mouse, could I route a 10m powered USB cable to a little unpowered USB hub on the shelf to plug the keyboard and mouse in, or are they likely to use too much power for the USB and get lag?

Hope that all makes sense.
